Relevant Information:

The species pictured has a slightly
different colouration from the original description and may only
be a variant of L. gibbosa or a new species from this
genus. Aquarium Care: Needs to be kept in an
aquarium with a high oxygen content for their requirements due
to them coming from swift currents where they sit upon rounded
stones. Keep at lower temperatures as high values can be a death
sentence to this species. No information on diet was available.
Remarks: For more information on this family read more
from Evers & Seidel 2005 as listed in Reference.
